Import WCA results export

[jfly]

This is necessary to do #20, and is needed to do the wca id part of #53.

I think it would make sense to show the status of this (and have an option to kick off a download and import) as part of the proposed site admin dashboard #35

[jbmertens]

Just a note about this: we may need to only import the following things for #20:

• best individual results (not all of them); this is what CubingUSA does.
• current records

[jfly]

Smart, yeah. What about people who have competed for multiple countries? Is there anything tricky there that would require having all the results?

[jbmertens]

Since we aren't creating competitor history / profiles, and don't much care about competitor history, I wouldn't think so.

[jfly]

I meant to ask: in order to do regional records correctly, do you need to keep track of all the results ever (to handle trickiness from competitors who switch countries)?

[jbmertens]

I don't think so.

This is unecessary for Phase 1. PUNT 🏈

Just checking - is this implemented, or a wontfix? If it is implemented, can you reference a commit, othwise I made a 'wontfix' label.

The plan is to handle this via a hypothetical new WCA api. See #20 and https://github.com/cubing/ccm/milestone/6.
